Terrible Mattress - Sags at Center Never Expanded
As many have reviewed the terrible customer service which I'm now experiencing myself I feel I need to comment on the mattress. After many hours of research and reading about the mattress on the Avocado site and reviews (maybe fake?) We purchased the mattress and separate topper. The vacuumed packed mattress was unpacked and set up per their video and we left it to expand for two weeks (on vacation) before any initial use. I noticed that the top still had a deep depression where it was folded for shipping and and it was wrinkled not full and puffy like the video and pictures. Obviously due to the vacuum packing and possibly a flaw in the construction of the mattress it never fully expanded. We decided to give it several months and see if it responded to use. It has only gotten worse and and for several months I awake with back and hip pain and now sleep on our 10 year old mattress which we put in the guest room, which doesn't sag and doesn't cause back and hip pain. This Avocado Mattress is clearly flawed and defective. I'm now on my 6th email with customer service since there wasn't a way to call them and they will not call me despite requesting it. I'm simply getting requests for a picture of this and picture of that and a picture of the bed frame, measurements of the slats etc. all one email at a time. Now they're suggesting we place the mattress on the floor to test it out and see if we need to build a "solid platform" in our new, expensive, very well built bed as this may remove the sunken center and wrinkled top. Seriously this is most ridiculous process I have experienced with a product. We regret buying a mail order mattress. We considered exchanging the Avocado mattress for another hopefully good one, but after this terrible service and experience they just lost a customer! I'm waiting for their the next email to request our body weight (me 185lbs and wife135lbs) so we're about average or slightly below), so they cant blame the sagging on our being overweight. Based on the stalling it appears they want to do anything but accept responsibility for their poor product. I'm beginning to believe we are about to be stuck with a really bad, expensive, defective mattress as they obviously don't want to stand behind all the promises and guarantees on their web site. DON'T BUY ONE AND FIND A BETTER COMPANY FOR ORGANICS!
